Back during the Clinton impeachment, when blacks loved the Clintons and hated Barr for helping get Bill impeached, black radio talk shows would be flooded with calls saying things like, "Barr is passing. My cousin told me he's his cousin's cousin." And if that's not proof, I don't know what is.

Barr must be kicking himself now over the fact that he didn't hop on this whole mixed race = racial reconciliator shtick decades ago instead of just positioning himself as another boring white guy.

I hope Barr gives those thouroughly disgusted with McCain (like myself) an opportunity to cast a "protest" vote.

I simply cannot bear voting for either McCain or Obama. I think the MSM really gamed these primaries to get this result, and I imagine a couple of years in the Obama presidency all those college kids, then young adults, will be feeling buyer's remorse for casting a vote to reflect light on themselves.

Barr's run is great news. I hope he gets enough steam to suck the air out of McCain's run. If there's a 3rd party candidate to blame for McCain's loss, then the Conservatives won't have the convenient excuse of "it was the Obamessiah's time, nothing we could do."

Excellent. The Republican leadership must be punished. If there's no cost to their perfidy, they'll perpetuate it.

Yeah, but we're always the ones who end up paying. Whoever loses will sulk awhile and then shuffle back to whatever fabulous life he or she was living. Whoever wins will force us to fight off some combination of national health care, open borders and a massive, intrusive federal government.

There has to be a better way to elect a president, other than the two year, twenty million dollar slog we've got now.

Wright is overcompensating for being a rich high yella kid with black establishment parents in Philly. Worse, his mother was a school administrator. Even worse, she was the school disciplinarian. Moreven worse, his own father was a high-toned upscale preacher.

As a high yella member of the Philly black establishment, he was a classic overcompensating tragic mulatto. He knows his white blood taint perpetually keeps him from being a real black man. It indicated status in Philly, but not since the Black Power days.

His deep unease at his white ancestors pops up in weird ways. He says that Jefferson "raped" Sally Hemmings, for example. He cannot face the fact that Sally probably wanted upscale kids and really didn't worry about marriage. Being into race purity like Wright is a much later development in black consciousness.

I'll tell you this, friends, if you ever get to know high yella black folks, you will occasionally find Wright's tortured attitude: "It musta been rape! No decent black woman would have ANYTHING to do with a white man! Not MY mama!" (Neglecting, of course, all of recorded human history to arrive at this race-pure conclusion.)

Other high yella folks aren't anywhere near as conflicted as Wright. They tend to enjoy their white heritage, research their white roots and point out their illustrious white ancestors (but not around white folk, of course -- too embarassing).

Nah. Wright has it bad. At least since the Panthers and black power, he feels compelled to make excuses and blame his own white male ancestors in an attempt to deny their very existence and his great-grandma's taste for white meat.

Excellent. The Republican leadership must be punished. If there's no cost to their perfidy, they'll perpetuate it."

Exactly right. Punishment at the polls is seemingly the only stimulus that can alter a politicians actions. If McCain loses, it will not change him (he's too old a dog to learn new tricks), but it will be an object lesson to other purported conservatives.

If McCain wins it will destroy whatever is left of conservatism in the republican party.

Whoever wins will force us to fight off some combination of national health care, open borders and a massive, intrusive federal government.

Hell, bro. We got all that now! I'm sure it can be worse, but the markets telegraph concern much more heavily than votes. That's what really de-railed Clinton's health care plan.

Having both Congress and the WH in Democratic hands is worrisome. OTOH, an Obama presidency will be such an incoherent, PC/multicult cluster-you-know-what that it will probably pass after four ineffective years. Kind of like the Carter interlude before Reagan.

My other prediction is an Obama presidency ends with two-thirds of HUD, HHS and Education under indictment.

Here's the Google Wallet FAQ. From it: "You will need to have (or sign up for) Google Wallet to send or receive money. If you have ever purchased anything on Google Play, then you most likely already have a Google Wallet. If you do not yet have a Google Wallet, don’t worry, the process is simple: go to wallet.google.com and follow the steps." You probably already have a Google ID and password, which Google Wallet uses, so signing up Wallet is pretty painless.

You can put money into your Google Wallet Balance from your bank account and send it with no service fee.

Google Wallet works from both a website and a smartphone app (Android and iPhone -- the Google Wallet app is currently available only in the U.S., but the Google Wallet website can be used in 160 countries).

Or, once you sign up with Google Wallet, you can simply send money via credit card, bank transfer, or Wallet Balance as an attachment from Google's free Gmail email service. Here'show to do it.

Fifth: if you have a Chase bank account (or, theoretically,other bank accounts), you can transfer money to me (with no fees) via Chase QuickPay (FAQ).

My Book:

"Steve Sailer gives us the real Barack Obama, who turns out to be very, very different - and much more interesting - than the bland healer/uniter image stitched together out of whole cloth this past six years by Obama's packager, David Axelrod. Making heavy use of Obama's own writings, which he admires for their literary artistry, Sailer gives the deepest insights I have yet seen into Obama's lifelong obsession with 'race and inheritance,' and rounds off his brilliant character portrait with speculations on how Obama's personality might play out in the Presidency." - John Derbyshire Author, "Prime Obsession: Bernhard Riemann and the Greatest Unsolved Problem in Mathematics" Click on the image above to buy my book, a reader's guide to the new President's autobiography.
